Through the breaks in the August breeze I feel the stones underneath my feet We found a boat, fixed it up If this is life then that's enough, that's enough
We sailed it out with the parting tide And anchored down in the summer light All this place, has all my love If this life, then that's enough, that's enough
I could live here forever and grow older in this weather Heaven would be jealous of where we arе Lighting bonfires on beaches Thеse people are the reason This old town will always have my heart
Oh I wish that I could stay, by the shores of Whitstable Bay I know I'll have to leave this place, but not today
I hear your footsteps on the hard wood floor I know that there's a whole world outside that door This home home, where I was raised Where knuckles scarred and knees were grazed This is safe
I could live here forever and grow older in this weather Heaven would be jealous of where we are Lighting bonfires on beaches These people are the reason This old town will always have my heart
Oh I wish that I could stay, by the shores of Whitstable Bay I know I'll have to leave this place but my heart will still remain On the streets that I was born and raised The streets that raised my family up the same way These memories I have will never fade
Oh I wish that I could stay, by the shores of Whitstable Bay I know I'll have to leave this place, but not today
